Homeward is a technology-enabled healthcare provider delivering quality, affordable and comprehensive care to those who don't have it.
Starting in rural America.
Today, 60 million Americans living in rural communities are facing a crisis of access to care.
In the U.
S.
healthcare system, rural Americans experience significantly poorer clinical outcomes.
This trend is rapidly accelerating as rural hospitals close and physician shortages increase, exacerbating health disparities.
In fact, Americans living in rural communities suffer a mortality rate 23 percent higher than those in urban communities, in part because of the lack of access to quality care.
Our vision is care that enables everyone to achieve their best health.
So, we're rearchitecting the way it's delivered – leveraging breakthroughs in diagnostics, remote monitoring, and a variety of other domains, Homeward is creating a new healthcare delivery model that is purpose-built for rural America and directly addresses the issues that have historically limited access and quality.
Most importantly, we're aligning everyone's incentives (ours, partner health plans', and members') towards getting and keeping people healthy by taking full responsibility and financial risk for the total cost of each member's healthcare and outcomes.
Homeward is co-founded by a leadership team that defined and delivered Livongo's products, and backed most recently by a $50 million series B co-led by Arch Ventures and Human Capital, with participation from General Catalyst for a total of $70 million in funding.
With this leadership team and funding, Homeward is committed to bringing high-quality healthcare to rural communities in need.
The Opportunity Join us in tackling healthcare for rural America! We're seeking a full-time Care Navigator passionate about having a positive societal impact and using technology for good – solving issues of health inequity for communities that have been perennially underserved in Delta, Menominee, and Eastern Dicksinson counties.

You'll conduct proactive telephonic, video, and in-person outreach to build relationships with members and connect them with services they need–medical, behavioral, and social–and address gaps in their care.
You will deeply understand your local community and use your expertise to advance members' health.
